If you are venturing to Loei, take your fleece, it's been very nippy up here in the night and early morning.

Like all dictators, they live in a false world with their cold war mentality at the expense of the country's youth and prosperity.

And most expats are boycotting them due to the racist prices for non Thais, thereby losing another revenue stream.

Why not send by Fedex or UPS? Cargo flights never stopped flying to Thailand.

I would not trust international mail with anything more important than picture postcard.

I have received a new Nationwide debit card, correspondence from my pension company and HM pensions dept without any difficulty.

No in county testing so how the hell do tell how widespread it is, test, test, test.

All these months of no tourists and they could have tested millions by now but the cretins can't be arsed.

A ruskie at a democracy demo, what would he know about it coming from a commie 1 party state.

The Isaan locals always have the coughing spate at this time of year when the cold air descends upon us.

Nothing unusual about it.

Whether or not it's being used as a cover up for CV19, I couldn't say.

I did mine at Bangrak moons ago, just me and the missus on our own, everybody was very helpful and although it took a few hours it all went smoothly.

Bangkok Post, BBC, CNN, The Guardian, Bloomberg and some others not so frequently.

They certainly aren't.

All the foreign teachers where I live don't have work permits.

It probably varies by office. Not sure they will accept 6 months statements either.

I have gotten a one year bank statement done the month before since it takes a week to get it. And then a one month statement that shows the month I apply when I request the bank letter.

I submitted 2 six monthly statements from Bangkok Bank, 100 baht a statement, issued while I waited, around 30 minutes,

for my Non O marriage extn in September at Roi Et, no problem.

The second time I waited a bit longer because of the bank letter, confirming my account.

Many bars on Soi 6 in Pattaya can be viewed on Facebook live.

Jeez, how convoluted. The Thais and their incomprehensible love for unnecessarily inflated paperwork and multiple copies of everything. Just look at all the information that needs to be filled in!

You are forgetting this is their version of the digital Thailand 4.0 project.

i never see Indian or South Asians at immigration. I wonder how many are working illegally here. Maybe its because I am not right in Bangkok.

True, I don't either and they are out and about where I live in Isaan because they are working in the silk business.

I had my first visit this year and I've done 12 marriage extensions.

hello,

Many times I was under the rain with girls, and then the next day they were sick, at least with a sore throat.

Is there any reason to be sick after being wet by the rain ? Even when raining it's never cold here, so why being sick ?

Is it a virus or bacteria / germ ? And why without knowing the cause they always take antibiotics ?

 

Thank you, I really want to know.

It is cold here for me this time of year.

We've recently had over night temperatures of 20/21C and that means cold to me as I don't have to use the Aircon.

My recent early morning walk is usually with a light jacket.

When I go back to the old country and it's mid teens or lower I literally freeze and even wear a fleece indoors.

I have acclimate to the hotter temps of the 30s up.

I will need to travel soon to Belgium to appear in a Court Case.
After the court case (about 7 days) I would return to Thailand.
Is this possible?
Will there be any restrictions on travelling back to Thailand?
TIA

Belgium has just announced a lockdown.

Another statement that doesn't use joined up writing.

Yesterday it was reported only Bangkok was to be used for quarantine of tourists as it would be easier,so they claim, to address any outbreak.

And it should have been 2450 or perhaps 24500, I think at least one zero is missing.

A complete waste of time but then he's a complete waste of space,

yet more jaw, jaw and no action.

Another keystone moment, just shows how lucrative policing is.

The corrupt cheating the corrupt, what else do they expect.

You could always quit drink, that would save a lot of money. It takes about 4-5 years to reset, after that you won't think about beer anymore and lose all taste for it.

Beer in Thailand has preventatives in so it can last in hot climate for months without refrigeration. You really don't want to drink that stuff everyday.

I usually find that approaching 3 months from the fill date stamped on the bottle, the taste starts to go off.

I put this down too the fact it's in and out of varying degrees of temperature after manufacture.
